Application Aspects of Fuzzy Color Modeling

Currently, processing data and presenting results in a human consistent manner is of great value. This paper provides some insights on application aspects of fuzzy color modeling in e-commerce apparel coordination and computational aesthetics. For that, we apply previously developed FHSI (Fuzzy HSI) color model. In FHSI, colors are modeled considering the imprecision, subjectivity, context-dependency, and non-uniformity of color distributions. Developed prototype of apparel online shop with underlying fuzzy color processing mechanisms allows overcoming the limitations of the traditional e-commerce search. Our method is effectively used to retrieve shopping items based on fuzzy dominant colors, make compositions based on harmonious color schemes we derived, predict the aesthetic preference for color combinations from an individual color preference and harmony.
